When watching Jess Franco films you come to expect a certain unfinished quality and amateur charm however I have to say that The Bloody Judge is a surprisingly adept film. Camera focus is almost never lost, the direction is pretty tight and the pacing is good throughout. The torture scenes are pretty dubious and the plot/script leaves something to be desired but that's a given when you're watching a Eurotrash movie.

My only real gripe is the civil war scenes which probably go on a little too long and with a bit too much smoke machine and you can't make out what's going on

Good fun!
Wait til you see Justine!!
